Bulls also can travel in fresh water. reliable inf says they have been seen in the Mississippi River as far north as illinois, or so sez Nat Geo. Also the Ganges, and the Amazon. They are also noted for eating people.

Yes they are. Swimming with sharks, let alone known maneater species, is not my definition of fun. But more power to ya, glad ya didn't get mangled, eaten, or killified.

It's a good thing you didn't get eaten. Bull sharks are pretty aggressive and not the type of sharks you want to play with.

Very cool but I'm not sure I want to dive with Bull's and I have dived with thousands of sharks over the years. I always love seeing shark especially when you can get close.

I can't remember ever seeing a shark in Mexico although I may have. Done a bunch of diving down there.

I have been diving the Oregon coast since 1986 If I was ever that close to a shark I would shit myself.

Nice video!

Seeing sharks while diving is cool...always a treat.
It brings real meaning to "head on a swivel" but yeah, Bulls can be pricks.

Encountering a shark or 10 on a dive has never bothered me, but certain species I keep a much closer eye on. Bull sharks for sure top that list as common sharks (relatively) along with Tiger's.
